Soyinka: NFL Player Offers Someone $1.5k To Switch Seats, Gets Rejected

Carolina Panthers star, Cam Newton, got denied over the weekend, after offering $1,500 to switch seats aboard a 10-hour flight from Paris.

The player had originally paid for a business class seat from Paris to Charlotte, but missed the flight. .

The quarterback was then forced to fly home via a connecting flight in Dallas in regular economy with no extra legroom.

Newton, a 6-foot 5-inch tall man, then offered the unidentified man $1,500 for the seat and was subsequently turned down.

Newton smiled and walked back to his assigned seat. Elisara Edwards, who recorded the incident, said: “He asked the guy in front of us about his seat and if he can trade seats, and the other passenger asked him how tall he was.

He said he was 6-6, and the guy goes, ‘Well, I’m 6-4, and I’m with my buddies here, so I won’t be able to give up my seat.’ And he asked him if he would trade for $1,000, and he said, ‘No.’ And he’s like, ‘$1,500?’ And he said, ‘No.’”

However, Nigerians have attributed the incident to that of Professor Wole Soyinka with a man on a plane few days.

#lifesha

OK

Hustle o so that you can reject oppression

Hmm

Lol. Nigeria a country so "moral" We respect our Elders to the point they steal our resources, steal our future, destroy our economy and we let them because they're our Elders

Omo sha I get double thoughts on top this matter

Good to know... But why the mockery..

Q

K

Me go stand through out the flight sef....

He deserves a slap sef.

How much did the guy buy the seat, that he wants him to sell it for $1500?

The guy will lose the seat.
Lose his manhood.
Lose the company of his friends aboard the flight.
Lose his comfort (leg space).

All for $1500?

E suppose start to bid @ $10000.

Two different situations.

If I was the man I will just tell him to use both sit, say I dey trek come for back


NB: the money is not much sef, I thought it's 10000

Somethings are spiritual but the canal heart will never sense it. Only God knows what the spiritual significance of the seat exchange would have done to the poor young man. Who knows if his long life would have been exchanged for Soyinkas'

Maybe a hunch, instinct, or spiritual antenna drove his determination to retain his seat, his position, or what he paid for.

When you have got such a sudden and brazen affront, unfounded boldness, make sure you follow it to the latter. Something may just be on the line.

Lol. I don't blame you.

I only blame the adult that thought it wise to get you a phone.

Wetin I fit to talk

Being rich or poor is not all about money.

Intellectual wealth rocks.

Free money

NOL2dworld:

more than half a million naira just to switch seats?

& me that has been working for more than 2 years don't even have upto 500k in my account


Omo life sha, omo this life sha!

@Topic and @ the PDP loser quoting us above,

The image below is for you.

The nan is worth more than that that's why he cannot buy him and his seat.
May be if he has pleaded gently the Man might just accept instead of offering him cash to buy his conscience and offer the seat in return which to the Man is corruption
